A fewer sentences about how absurd policies are being pushed by fanatics in the government in a context, specified as blocking the construction of the E30 waterway on the example of the United Kingdom. The pain with which essential investments are being made in our country affects the pace of our economical development. For example, there are inactive no waterways to which we have a beautiful good geographical location. The E30 road linking the Baltic to the Danube should have been successfully exploited for decades to the benefit of our economy.
By comparison, thousands of kilometers of waterways were built in Britain (on the island!), connecting almost the full country. There are now as many as 7,600 km of navigable canals and rivers in Britain, of which more than 4,300 km is simply a combined system. If individual wanted to swim from the south of the La Manche Canal by a unit of between 17 and 22 metres in length, they would arrive by waterways almost to Scotland, and in the meantime could swim across the country, sail out into the open sea, return to inland navigation and visit another cities specified as Bristol, London, Nottingham, Liverpool, Manchester and many another smaller and larger ones.
Life on boats has become a way for many people to spend their free time, including retirement. Low travel costs make interior tourism flourish, where travelling around the country and sleeping on boats for many people is an attractive alternate to vacation trips. any water RVs.
However, not only passenger transport is practiced. The channels are successful in transporting goods and of economical importance. Especially those larger and allowing larger individuals. The network expanded with the improvement of industry. The channels were crucial to the pace of the industrial revolution. Canals were built between industrial centres, cities and ports. They were transported by coal, wood and industrial goods. present they are besides exploited and service the economy by reducing transport costs.
The Manchester Canal was built in the second half of the 19th century in 1887–1894. The 58 km(!) canal was built for 7 years, so about as long as the process of digging the Vistula metre with a dimension (counting with a breakwater) 1.5 kilometres in the 21st century. To Manchester, a city located inland, they wrap container ships 183 metres long (ships up to 100 metres long will flow through Wiślana Measure). At 1 time, this port was the 3rd largest transhipment port in the UK. You could do specified projects in the 19th century. The pace of work present would be unrealistic. Only in China is building so quickly.

The problem with the usage of the possible of Poland, including in the construction of waterways, is not in nonsubjective obstacles, but in the absence of political will and omnipresent bureaucracy, which strangles even the authoritative initiative and absurdly prolongs the time of the investment. We see this on the example of CPK.
It is absurd that, by 2 terms of the Law and Justice Government, any investments have not even begun due to the fact that the paper did not let them to start within a reasonable timeframe. The government of the Law and Justice Service has contributed to this.
Today, then, ruling fanatics have no obstacles to blocking and keeping our country in many cases in underdevelopment.
